“Jeans are not comfortable. We do make a nice soft pant sometimes and that’s comfortable but jeans can be a little restrictive,” she added.

The 41-year-old actress had joked that sweatpants were the number one reason for divorce in the United States.

She said: “You can’t do sweatpants…ladies, number one cause of divorce in America, sweatpants, no! I love a soft pant, so I make sure they’re included in every collection. But if you see me in jeans it’s probably because all my skirts are at the dry cleaners or just dirty.

“I mean, I think jeans are really uncomfortable actually – aren’t they? ‘I always prefer a boyfriend jean, but I found those to be restrictive, too.”
